1 Scalar ratios were applied to ‘‘Authorized Take’’ values as described at 86 FR 5322, 5404 (January 19, 2021) to derive scaled take numbers
shown here.
2 Best abundance estimate. For most taxa, the best abundance estimate for purposes of comparison with take estimates is considered here to
be the model-predicted abundance (Roberts et al., 2016). For those taxa where a density surface model predicting abundance by month was
produced, the maximum mean seasonal abundance was used. For those taxa where abundance is not predicted by month, only mean annual
abundance is available. For the killer whale, the larger estimated SAR abundance estimate is used.
3 Includes 19 takes by Level A harassment and 271 takes by Level B harassment. Scalar ratio is applied to takes by Level B harassment only;
small numbers determination made on basis of scaled Level B harassment take plus authorized Level A harassment take.

Based on the analysis contained
herein of Shell’s proposed survey
activity described in its LOA
application and the anticipated take of
marine mammals, NMFS finds that
small numbers of marine mammals will
be taken relative to the affected species
or stock sizes and therefore is of no
more than small numbers.

AGENCY:

NMFS has determined that the level
of taking for this LOA request is
consistent with the findings made for
the total taking allowable under the
incidental take regulations and that the
amount of take authorized under the
LOA is of no more than small numbers.
Accordingly, we have issued an LOA to
Shell authorizing the take of marine
mammals incidental to its geophysical
survey activity, as described above.

including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, the Commission is
publishing notice of the proposed
collection of information listed below.
Title: Reporting, Recordkeeping, and
Daily Trading Records Requirements for
Swap Dealers and Major Swap
Participants (OMB Control Nos. 3038–
0087). This is a request for an extension
of currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: On April 3, 2012, the
Commission adopted Commission
regulations 23.201 through 23.205
(Reporting, Recordkeeping, and Daily
Trading Records Requirements For
Swap Dealers and Major Swap
Participants) 2 pursuant to sections
4s(f) 3 and 4s(g) 4 of the Commodity
Exchange Act (‘‘CEA’’).5 Commission
regulations 23.201 through 23.205
require, among other things, swap
dealers (‘‘SD’’) 6 and major swap
participants (‘‘MSP’’) 7 to maintain
transaction and position records of their
swaps (including daily trading records)
and to maintain specified business
records (including records related to the
governance and financial status of the
swap dealer or major swap participant,
complaints received by such SD or MSP
and such SD or MSP’s marketing and
sales materials). They also require SDs
and MSPs to report certain swap
transaction data to swap data
repositories, to satisfy certain real time
public reporting requirements, and to
maintain records of information
reported to swap data depositories and
for real time reporting purposes.8 The
Commission believes that the
information collection obligations
imposed by Commission regulations
23.201 through 23.205 are necessary to
implement sections 4s(f) and 4s(g) of the
CEA, including ensuring that each SD
and MSP maintains the required records
of their business activities and an audit
trail sufficient to conduct
comprehensive and accurate trade
reconstruction. An agency may not
conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, a collection of

the CEA and Commission regulation 1.3.7 U.S.C.
1a(49) and 17 CFR 1.3.
7 For the definitions of MSP, see section 1a(33) of

information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.

information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information will have a practical use;
• The accuracy of the Commission’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;
• Ways to enhance the
quality,usefulness, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and
• Ways to minimize the burden of
collection of information on those
whoare to respond, including through
the use of appropriate automated
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology;
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
You should submit only information
that you wish to make available
publicly. If you wish the Commission to
consider information that you believe is
exempt from disclosure under the
Freedom of Information Act, a petition
for confidential treatment of the exempt
information may be submitted according
to the procedures established in § 145.9
of the Commission’s regulations.9
The Commission reserves the right,
but shall have no obligation, to review,
pre-screen, filter, redact, refuse or
remove any or all of your submission
from https://www.cftc.gov that it may
deem to be inappropriate for
publication, such as obscene language.
All submissions that have been redacted
or removed that contain comments on
the merits of the information collection
request will be retained in the public
comment file and will be considered as
required under the Administrative
Procedure Act and other applicable
laws, and may be accessible under the
Freedom of Information Act.
Burden Statement: The Commission
is revising its estimate of the burden for
this collection to reflect the current
number of respondents. The respondent
burden for this collection is estimated to
be as follows:
Estimated Number of Respondents:
107.
Estimated Average Burden Hours Per
Respondent: 2,096.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 224,272.
Frequency of Collection: As
